Maybe have a chat to Inquisitor K'han. I don't think the things you're looking for exist yet, but he's had a look at some options for renders like these:



Inasmuch as there are tribal styles (I expect a lot of variation) I tend to think of Brutor tattoos as Pacific-influenced, especially by the whorls of Maori moko. There may be render elements out there which have already been created along these lines: worth a look.

Inquisitor K'han is doing some very nice work. This is one of my favourites, though.

That picture is very good. It immediately brought this one to mind:

Saxon, I believe that was one of the inspirations, yes.

(My first response to K'han when I saw the image was pretty much identical to Saxon's, so I've had this confirmed. :) )

Its kind of a non sequitur but, I love that picture because, being based on that famous NatGeo pic, the Matari kid's pic immediately pulls a real-world context into the game, so you can immediately get the same context from an in-game point of view.
